The first two in the series are from Nancy White of Full Circle Associates and Julius Nyangaga of the International Livestock Research Institute.Nancy White discusses various aspects of strengthening communities of practice (CoPs), as well as mechanisms to measure their effectiveness and improve our understanding of how people are participating in CoPs. Julius Nyangaga discusses his experience with projects that use Outcome Mapping to measure knowledge sharing among diverse stakeholders and shares his reflections on how OM can be used to capture knowledge uptake.Nancy White, Full Circle AssociatesJulius Nyangaga, ILRIOver the next few months we will be posting more video notes from various KM practitioners from around the world and keep you updated on our activities.
